In today's episode, we see that young love can be just as heartbreaking and nuanced as any adult relationship - especially if the people concerned have stayed at the age of eight for 35years... which is exactly the state of play for Lisa Simpson and her bad boy love interest Nelson Muntz.

Yes, that right, we're going all the way back to the golden year of 1996, when our saxophone playing precocious genius, Lisa had her head turned by the local tearaway, Nelson, and for that we have writer, comedian and internet sensation, Benedict Townsend to thank! Haaahaa!

According to the 'The Simpsons' Lisa and Nelson were never meant to be, but what happens to our star-crossed lovers beyond Springfield? Is there more than meets the eye to this story? Perhaps so, and there are dramatisations aplenty in this ep to illustrate what really happened in this sweet tale of first crushes...
